Re: [openstack-dev] [Diesel] Proposal for new project
Hi Adrian, Jay and Raj Thanks for your responses on relationship between Solum and Diesel. It does sound like they are in the same domain. My feeling was that it was a very different approach where Solum was aimed at developer, Diesel was aimed at the cloud provider. In some companies these roles are not very different but in others they are completely different and may even work for different companies. I plan to start engaging in Solum project and see how this use model can be addressed or perhaps already is.

[openstack-dev] [Diesel] Proposal for new project
I would like to gauge interest in a new project named Diesel. https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Diesel If you are already familiar with Savanna, the best way to describe it is: Savanna is to map reduce applications as Diesel is to web applications. The mission of Diesel is to allow OpenStack clouds to run applications. The cloud administrator can control the non functional aspects, freeing up the application developer to focus on their application and its functionality. In the spirit of Google App Engine, Heroku, Engine Yard and others, Diesel runs web applications in the cloud. It can be used by cloud administrators to define the application types that they support. They are also responsible for defining through Diesel how these applications run on top of their cloud infrastructure. Diesel will control the availability and scalability of the web application deployment. Please send me email if you would like to collaborate on this and I can set up an IRC meeting.

Re: [openstack-dev] [Diesel] Proposal for new project
Hi Raj As I see it, Solum is a set of utilities aimed at developers to use OpenStack clouds but will not be part of OpenStack proper. While Diesel is meant to be a service that is provided by an OpenStack cloud (and at some point becoming part of OpenStack itself). It defines a contract and division of responsibility between developer and cloud.
